MC Services to host Press Lounge at BIO-Europe(R) 2016 in Cologne

Munich/Duesseldorf, Germany, October 28, 2016: MC Services AG, the
international investor relations and public relations firm, today announced
that it will serve as supporting media partner for BIO-Europe(R) 2016,
Europe's largest partnering conference for the global biotechnology
industry. The event, organized by EBD Group, will take place November 7-9,
2016 at the KoelnMesse Congress Center North in Cologne, Germany.

As host of the BIO-Europe(R) Press Lounge, MC Services is inviting both
international and local journalists to the event and keeping them informed
about the presenting company executives and investors attending this
meeting. Centrally located in the exhibit hall - in the midst of activities
- the BIO-Europe(R) Press Lounge offers fully-equipped work stations for
accredited media representatives who will also be able to use the lounge
area to conduct interviews or network with industry representatives.

In addition, together with its partners EBD Group, Labiotech.eu and BIO
Clustermanagement NRW GmbH, MC Services will host a dedicated BIO-Europe(R)
live blog. Journalism students from the TU Dortmund and the Kölner
Journalistenschule have been invited to the conference to conduct
interviews with participants and report on their impressions of the event,
as well as highlights from panels, company presentations and discussions.
The goal of this initiative is to provide a vivid picture of the event to
interested people in and outside the conference and to get young
journalists enthusiastic about the complex field of biotechnology. The blog
will be accessible via the websites of EBD Group as well as MC Services
under www.bio-live.de.

"BIO-Europe(R) is a key partnering conference for the European biotech
industry and an important event for MC Services and many of our clients.
BIO-Europe(R) 2015 in Munich was a great success and we are pleased to
further intensify our collaboration with EBD Group as a media partner,"
said Anne Hennecke, Managing Partner at MC Services AG. "As part of this
initiative we are also proud that we will again be inviting science
journalism students to get in touch with this exciting industry. Through
this project, we seek to gain maximum attention for the industry, this
prestigious event and the participating companies not only today but also
in the future."

Each year, BIO-Europe(R) attracts an international "who's who" from the
biotech, pharma and finance worlds along with the most exciting emerging
